Patent CA-2242662-C (CA)

Abstract: An extended nip press having a concave shoe which is supported on a hydraulic actuator which urges the shoe against a backing roll. A pair of opposed profile control hydraulic actuators apply a pure couple about the load support line formed by a bearing pin which transmits the support load from the hydraulic actuator to the shoe. A leading hydraulic actuator is positioned in front of the load support line and pulls up on the shoe. A trailing hydraulic actuator is positioned behind the load support line and pulls down on the shoe. The leading hydraulic actuator and trailing hydraulic actuator are equally spaced from the load support line and have equal hydraulic actuator area and are connected to the same hydraulic reservoir. Thus the hydraulic actuators exactly balance each other out except for the couple or torque which they apply about the load support line.

Title: Electrical connector having time-delayed signal compensation
Inventor: ADRIAENSSENS LUC W
IPC: H01R24/64
Filed: 1998-08-18
Granted: 2002-01-22
Abstract: An electrical connector [60] achieves improved transmission performance by introducing predetermined amounts of compensation between two pairs of conductors that extend from its input terminals to its output terminals along interconnection paths. Electrical signals on one pair of conductors are coupled onto the other pair of conductors in two or more compensation stages that are time delayed with respect to each other. Illustratively, the electrical connector is a modular jack that is adapted to receive a modular plug [20]. Associated with themodular plug and the input of the modular jack there exists a known amount of offending crosstalk [A0], which is approximately canceled by the two or more stages of compensating crosstalk. In a first stage, compensating crosstalk [A1] is introduced between the pairs, and it has a first predetermined magnitude and phase at a given frequency. In a second stage, compensating crosstalk [A2] is introduced between the pairs, and it has a second predetermined magnitude and phase at the given frequency. Multiple compensation stages are needed because, at high frequencies, compensating crosstalk cannot be introduced that is exactly 180 degrees out of phase with the offending crosstalk because of propagation delay. The electrical connector [60] is constructed using a multi-layer printed wiring board [600] having input and output terminals where connection to metallic wiresis made. These terminals are interconnected on the printed wiring board by metallic paths that are arranged to provide multiple stages of compensating crosstalk. When the connector [60] is joined to a plug [20], the near-end crosstalk of the combined structure is extremely low at frequencies up to at least 200 MHz

Abstract: A mechanical optical fiber splice with does not employ any gel material with a matching refractive index, wherein the fiber ends are prepared for intimate axial compressive contact and the fiber end faces are maintained in the splice element in optically aligned intimate contact under axial compression, as the result of heating, elastic deformation or plastic deformation of the splice element. A fixed clamping mechanism (25) was attached to the actuating tool (17) at the left side of the splice nest (20), and positioned to grip the fiber immediately as it exited the splice. A second fiber clamp (23) was mounted at the right side of the splice nest (20 ) on a linear ball slide with approximately 0.1 inch (2.5 mm) travel. A compression spring (26) was in contact with the ball slide, and located opposite the splice nest (20) a screw was mounted on the tool base and was used for adjusting the force that the compression spring (26) placed on the fiber via the ball slide.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un générateur d'ondes numériques (10) recherchant dans une mémoire (38) des données de conversion .DELTA..SIGMA. analogique-numérique simulées (40) pour trouver l'onde analogique périodique voulue et la convertir en onde analogique synthétisée (54), au moyen d'un convertisseur numérique-analogique basse résolution et grande vitesse (50). Ce générateur d'ondes numériques .DELTA..SIGMA. est conçu de préférence pour tirer parti de l'évolution naturelle de la technologie des dispositifs. La mémoire relève de techniques plus anciennes, ce qui la rend plus lente et lui donne aussi une intégration nettement supérieure. Le convertisseur numérique-analogique relève de techniques plus récentes, plus rapides mais aussi plus faibles en matière d'intégration. Un ou plusieurs tampons d'accélération (44) relevant de techniques à vitesse et intégration intermédiaires peuvent être insérés en tant que pont entre la mémoire à faible vitesse et le convertisseur numérique-analogique à faible intégration. A mesure que les techniques actuelles s'affinent, et donc que l'intégration s'améliore mais aussi que naissent des techniques nouvelles à vitesse supérieure, la technologie des différents composants évoluera progressivement, sans pour autant amoindrir en principe la viabilité du générateur et sa supériorité par rapport aux générateurs numériques connus.

Abstract: A temperature indicator for indicating when a specified temperature has been exceeded in a fluid flow through a conduit. Such conduit having an aperture and the temperature indicator being mountable in such aperture and engagable therewith such that the temperature indicator projects through such aperture and into such fluid flow in such conduit. The temperature indicator includes a housing which substantially encloses an internal chamber and has a bore extending from the internal chamber to an external surface of the housing. An indicator member is disposed, at least in part, within the internal chamber and extends into the bore. A biasing element is disposed within the internal chamber and exerts a biasing force between the housing and the indicator member and urges the indicator member toward the bore. A bonding agent forms a bond between the indicator member and the housing to thereby restrain the indicator member from movement toward the bore under action of the biasing element. The bonding agent is thermosensitive to substantially release the bond between the indicator member and the housing when a temperature of the bonding agent substantially reaches the specified temperature.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé amélioré destiné à augmenter la relative viscosité et le poids moléculaire d'un polymère de polyamide (tel que le nylon 6,6, le nylon 6 et similaire) à l'état solide, en utilisant un catalyseur renfermant du phosphore (tel que de l'acide 2(2'-pyrydyl)éthyle phosphonique, de l'hypophosphite de sodium, du phosphinate de totyle et de l'hypophosphite de manganèse ou similaire), combiné à un gaz exempt d'oxygène caractérisé par un faible point de rosée (généralement inférieur à 30  DEG C et de préférence inférieur à -30  DEG C). L'utilisation simultanée d'un catalyseur renfermant du phosphore et d'un recyclage de gas de séchage à faible point de rosée rend l'opération avantageuse d'un point de vue financier et permet une production plus élevée à une température inférieure. Ce procédé présente une valeur particulière pour la production de polymères terpolyamides et multipolyamides destinés à être utilisés dans la fabrication de fibres de nylon de couleur.
